We are finishing up August with a neutral palette this week. We have Basic Beige, Pecan Pie, and Early Espresso. I knew that Woven Textures would fit the bill, but I surprised myself when I reached for Sunrise Sailing for the focal piece! So I have a Neutral Colors Sunrise Sailing card for you.
Here’s our challenge:

And here’s my card:

I love how the paper looks dimensional and textural!
Here’s my Recipe:
- Early Espresso Cardstock base, 11″x 4-1/4″
- Early Espresso Cardstock layer, 5-1/4″x 4″, textured with Forever Plaid 3D Embossing Folder
- Woven Textures DSP (dark brown), 4-3/4″x 4″, cropped with Meant To Bee Dies
- Very Vanilla Cardstock, 4″x 3-1/2″, cropped with Meant To Bee Dies
- Pecan Pie Cardstock, 3-3/4″x 3-1/4″, cropped with Meant To Bee Dies
- Very Vanilla strip for sentiment, 4″x 3/8″
- Linen Thread
- Sailboat with Early Espresso Cardstock and Woven Textures DSP (light brown weave)
- Sunrise Sailing Stamp Set for sentiment in Early Espresso ink
- Copper Metallic Gems

Now, let’s head over to Create with Stamping Friends for more inspiration using these three colors!

Thanks, Valarie!
Oh man, this is another great card. Love that sailboat mast. Such a great look of texture. So rich looking. You constantly amaze me with what you create.
Aww, thanks Chris! 😊
Love the card
Thanks, Shila!
What a creative combination for the Set Sailing bundle and how clever to use the Meant to Bee dies to add wow to this card
Great card!
Thanks so much, Dawn! I love the Meant To Bee Dies – I seem to reach for them often!
